Gandhinagar: Kuniyil Kai-lashnathan,who retired asadditional chiefsecretary (ACS)to chief minis-ter NarendraModi on Friday,

has been re-employed in thechief minister’s office (CMO).This was expected but what wasnot foreseen is his return aschief principal secretary, justone rank below the post fromwhich he retired. He has beenappointed on contract for twoyears.

Better known as KK, he wasexpected to be appointed as ad-visor to the chief minister, apost on a par with minister ofstate (MOS). In his new post,however, he will have at least sixadditional chief secretariesand a chief secretary abovehim.

At the CMO, however, hewill remain at the top with twojunior principal secretaries —G C Murmu and A K Sharma —under him. Sharma was expect-ed to replace KK but he will nowhave to wait for a long time to oc-cupy the top post in the CMO.

The appointment of KK oncontract has also raised doubtsabout his legal right to inter-vene in key administrative is-sues for which a retired or con-tractual employee cannot beheld liable. TNN

Gandhinagar: Sardar PatelInstitute of Public Administra-tion (SPIPA) is all set to widenits sphere of functioning. Be-sides training officials of thestate government and civil ser-vices aspirants of Gujarat, theinstitute will now be impartingtraining to aspirants of otherservices as well.

“We will be advertising thetraining course for other ser-vices very soon. We plan to im-part training to aspirants want-ing to get into public sectorbanks as probationary officers,those aspiring to get into cen-tral secretariat services andthose who want to get into vari-ous other central and state gov-ernment institutions as offi-cers through Union PublicService Commission and Guja-

rat Public Service Commis-sion. We will also train aspi-rants looking to get into defenceservices as officers. This is onearea where Gujarat is laggingbehind,” said an official.

The move follows SPIPAtrained candidates doing verywell in the recent Indian Ad-ministrative Services (IAS) ex-aminations. The official saidthat the proposed trainings willbe given at all the six trainingcentres of the institute.

He further informed thatSPIPA will be enhancing its in-frastructure. “We plan to en-hance the facilities in the hos-tels. We will be focusingspecially on the library in theinstitute,” he said while addingthat the next move on the cardsis to link the library of the insti-tute with those of other reputedinstitutions online.

The plan also fixes thenumber of teaching hours for full-time faculty members to ensure that

CEPT: VISION FOR FUTURE

TOI

Ahmedabad: He had caughtthe attention ofthe nation whenhe hurled hisshoe at the thenUnion homeminister P Chi-dambaram in

April 2009 and brought the 1984anti-Sikh riots back to public at-tention. Jarnail Singh, a jour-nalist-turned-activist, is nowtrying to get justice for the vic-tims of the Delhi riots by creat-ing public consensus on the 1984violence. On Sunday, he willtake out a token march on SGRoad.

Comparing the Gujarat riotsof 2002 with the 1984 riots, Singhtold journalists on Saturdaythat the latter were more horrif-ic not only in the execution butalso in their aftermath. “In the

case of the 2002 riots, the mediaraised questions and the judici-ary took note and set up an SITwhich summoned even the statechief minister. But nothing hashappened for the victims of 1984riots as the government has al-ways tried to belittle the issue.In Gujarat, a former minster isbehind bars but, in Delhi, the ac-cused have become ministersand held important positionsagain and again,” he said. Singhhas also penned a book on after-math of the anti-Sikh riots.

He said that several commis-sions were appointed to probethe riots that killed over 3,000Sikhs in a matter of three daysbut nothing has come out ofthem. No action has been takenagainst the political heavy-weights or the 72 policemennamed in various cases. TNN

‘Anti-Sikh riots wereworse than ’02 violence’

Ahmedabad: A visitor to any police sta-tion in the city will find row after row of vehicles seized during investigation of dif-ferent cases or because they were found abandoned. Sources in the city police said that for want of an alternative, over 5,000 such vehicles lie on the premises of differ-ent police stations where they occupy most of the open space.

To free this space, the city crime branch has launched Project Neelkanth. Under the project, the vehicles will be shifted to a centralized location for ‘vertical parking’ thereby freeing 85,000 square feet of space.

“More often than not, the vehicles are a burden for the police stations who are supposed to make regular inventories of seized goods. By the time an owner gets his vehicle back, it has become useless due to wear and tear. Most often, however, the vehicles go straight to the scrap market after lying with the police for five years on an average. Those seized in cases of mur-der, robbery or bodily assault are part of the evidence and hence cannot be disposed of,” said a senior city police official.

Another problem is keeping track of the seized vehicles. In a recent clean-up drive, the in-charge officers of different police stations were surprised to learn that many of the vehicles had no record in po-lice books. These vehicles had spent more than a decade at the police station con-cerned.

So what’s the solution to this seem-ingly intractable problem? The city crime branch has submitted a proposal for Project Neelkanth to the home department under the Suraksha Setu initiative. AK Sharma, joint commissioner of police (crime), told TOI that the project is named Neelkanth as it is supposed to take care of all unwanted goods crowding the city’s police stations.

“A centralized parking facility will be set up at Danilmda on 1.5 lakh square feet area where iron bars will be used to create vertical parking racks. It will not only re-duce the need for space but also allow bet-ter management. All that would be used here are iron bars which can be sold off if someone wants the project scrapped in the future,” he said.

The project will cost approximately Rs 1.5 crore. The money will be needed for the iron stacks, forklift and bar-coding of the vehicles. “The freed space will be used to make Nagrik Suvidha Kendras part of the Suraksha Setu initiative and for landscap-ing,” said a senior city police official.

Will Free 85,000 Square Feet At Police Stations

Brand them for successHimanshu Shukla, deputy commissioner of police (crime), said that giving different projects a brand name has been good for the city crime branch. “It started with Project Pinac where we compiled and integrated database of criminals in the city for better tracking and identification. Likewise, we launched Project Eklavya where we started an SMS-based integration system for stolen vehicles. We have been able to track more than 450 vehicles in a matter of two months. A name works as a brand which can be identified by the police and public alike,” he said.Seized vehicles clog police stations in the city

Ahmedabad: The city crime branch has proposed to bar-code all vehicles held at the centralized parking lot as that would make it easier to track them. As part of the older Project Eklavya, the city crime branch already has a database of more than 5 lakh vehicles.

Explaining the benefits, a crime branch official said that each barcode will hold details such as the make of the vehicle, its chassis and engine number, vehicle reg-istration number if availa-ble and even a photograph.

Thus, when a person ap-proaches the city police with a c o m p l a i n t a b o u t a stolen vehicle, all that a po-liceman will have to do is to type in its re gistration number in a computer inter-face provided by the Home Department Integrated In-formation Technology Serv-ices (HD-IITS).

“If the vehicle has indeed been seized by the city police somewhere, the database will show this immediately. Currently, a person has to wait while police agencies go through the seized vehicles list provided by individual

police stations for physical verification. Barcodes will speed up the process,” said the official.

Another advantage is shelter from the elements. “The proposed model of the centralized parking lot has roofs attached to the railings of the racks. They would protect the vehicles from di-rect sun l ight and ra in . We have proposed that fuel tanks be emptied for the sake of safety. Likewise, as it will b e a c e n t r a l i z e d facility run under supervi-sion of policemen, incidents of theft of important parts f r o m p a r k e d v e h i c l e s will also be minimised,” said the official.

(As on April 1, 2013)

MECHANICS OF THE SYSTEM

A vehicle seized by the city police will be towed directly to the central facility at Danilimda. Currently, they are parked on police station premises.

The vehicle will be checked against the RTO database available with the city crime branch to ascertain whether the vehicle was stolen. If the

vehicle’s registration is found, the owner would be informed about it.

If the vehicle is seized in connection with a case, it will be first subjected to forensic examination and then sent to Danilimda where it will be bar-coded. The barcode will have details such as chassis number, make, vehicle registration, etc. of the vehicle

and this would be entered into a central database that can be accessed by police stations.

When investigation of the case is over or the police are able to find the owner of the vehicle, they will inquire about the vehicle in the repository and also inform the management at the parking lot about it. Once the owner identifies the vehicle, it will be handed over to him or her.

After barcoding, the vehicle will be lifted

by a forklift and placed on a vertical rack of 15 to 20 feet. The racks would be covered at the top to protect vehicles from the elements. The management system will keep a record of the incoming vehicle.

Planning Educa5on at CEPT University

Challenges of Planning Educa5on Now •  Need for building capaciCes for the upcoming massive

transformaCon in the country

•  Developing capaciCes for addressing mulCple roles and re-‐strengthening the domain of planner

•  Balance between generalised planner and specialised planner (Generalised skills go long way while specialisaCon field changes with requirements of Cme)

•  Balance of theory, skills and values •  CapaciCes to learn from pracCce and modify pracCce through

theory –  pracCce is a relay from theory and theory is a relay from pracCce!

–  InternaConalizing the knowledge (theory) and localizing the pracCce!

Planning EducaCon-‐Debates

•  Design versus policy (or both) •  ‘RaConal’ versus deliberaCve •  Master planning versus development management

•  “one world” versus specific context – Case of internaConal accreditaCon of urban planners (needs further invesCgaCon)

•  Generalist vs Specialist

Urvi’s Plans for the Student Services Office

156 STUDENT SERVICES OFFICE, CEPT UNIVERSITY

VISION & MISSION PHILOSOPHY We, at CEPT University, believe that the primary role of education is to shape an individual’s worldview and thought process. This responsibility, then, cannot be met only in the classrooms or studios, but has to spread to every sphere of activity in a student’s life on campus. This approach puts the student at the center of the University’s activities and acknowledges a responsibility to serve each student so that (s)he may have the best learning experience.

MISSION The Student Services Office (SSO) is the central point of contact for information, services and resources for all prospective and current students. As the Students’ Gateway to and from CEPT University, the mission of the SSO is to enhance the students’ stay at CEPT University by ensuring a hassle-free, healthy and fun-filled experience. It will work as the link between the Central Offices and the Student body. VISION The Student Services Office is envisaged as the central hub of student activities on campus – an active, vibrant place, which currently houses the Services Office, the Wellness Resource Centre, and the Holistic Development Centre. The aim is to eventually form an integrated entity along with the Student Council Rooms, CEPT Co-op & Book shop, CEPT Music Room, CEPT Students Café, CEPT Student Union, etc. The attempt will be to link these activities to the workshops, labs and other student activities on campus, thereby making it the epicenter of all student activities on campus.
